  GOLDCORP ANNOUNCES NEW CREDIT FACILITY
 
(All figures are in US dollars unless stated otherwise)
 
Vancouver, British Columbia - May 21, 2007 - Goldcorp Inc. (GG:NYSE; G:TSX) today announced that it has entered into a $1.5 billion credit facility with a syndicate of twelve lenders.
 
The credit facility replaces the Company’s existing credit facilities. It is intended to be used to finance growth opportunities and for general corporate purposes. The floating rate facility is unsecured and amounts drawn are required to be financed or repaid by May 18, 2012.
 
“Funds from recent transactions and our continued strong cash flow have resulted in Goldcorp being essentially debt-free in the current quarter,” said Kevin McArthur, Goldcorp President and Chief Executive Officer. “This facility is consistent with the liquidity needs of a company our size, and it enables us to finance the mine construction activities that underpin the best growth profile in the gold mining industry.”
 
For the facility, Bank of Montreal acted as Co-Lead Arranger, Administrative Agent and Sole Bookrunner and Bank of Nova Scotia acted as Co-Lead Arranger, Syndication Agent and Processing Agent.
 
Goldcorp is one of the world’s lowest-cost and fastest growing multi-million ounce gold producers with operations throughout the Americas. The Company does not hedge its gold production.
